Court of Appeals of Indiana
Matthew G. Cranfill, as Personal Representative of the Estate of Josephine F. Cranfill, Deceased v. State of Indiana Department of Transportation
22A-CT-2062
Civil tort. Affirms the Putnam Circuit Court’s grant of summary judgment in favor of the Indiana Department of Transportation. Finds the department’s failure to lower the speed limit on State Rode 267 involved the “adoption and enforcement of or failure to adopt or enforce” a rule and/or regulation, so under the Indiana Tort Claims Act, the department is immune from liability from Cranfill’s claims.
